When compared to tequila, it is semi-sweet or dry with grape flavour notes, besides having herbal earthy flavours, similar to tequila.

Pisco is made from specific varieties of grapes, including both aromatic and non-aromatic types. The grapes are fermented into wine before being distilled. The fermentation process creates a grape wine, which is then distilled. The distillation process is typically done in copper pot stills.

Pisco Market Analysis

The Chilean origin piscos have gained substantial popularity among consumers

The Chilean origin piscos segment accounted for a sizable portion in the pisco market share and is expected to grow further in the forecast period because of its semi-arid and humid climate which enables grapes to grow exceptionally well.

Favourable climate conditions supports higher concentrations of sugar content in grapes, further helping successful fermentation. With less water, there is acidic soil, more alcoholic wine, and sweeter grapes, leading to the production of better-quality piscos. All these factors are thereby contributing to the growth of the Chilean segment in the global pisco market.

The demand for Peruvian-origin Pisco has seen notable growth, influenced by various factors that align with global trends in the beverage sector and consumer preferences.
